Outstanding lavender from France and a stiff challenger to Grosso, the current favourite on lavender farms. Gros Bleu is quickly becoming a standard in the Pacific Northwest where it is widely grown for fresh and dried bouquets, potpourris, and for landscape use. Compared to Grosso, its flowers are deeper purple, and the aroma is sweeter. Flower spikes can be 10cm/4in long, on extra long stems making it an excellent choice for cutting. Ht. 1m/3ft.
